Technical data

From vineyard to glass

The vineyard

The vines are located in the village of Préhy, on the Kimmeridgian — the upper layer of the Jurassic composed of limestone — with a southwest exposure. We practice a reasoned approach to viticulture having obtained the HVE level 3 label, which translates into ploughing which activates the organic and microbial life of the soil, partial grassing on certain plots and the use of natural fertilizers and treatments against diseases.

Winemaking

After a long and delicate pressing and a cold settling of about twenty hours, fermentation takes place around 16 to 18°C using indigenous yeasts. Malolactic fermentation is carried out on fine lees from November to mid-April, followed by light fining and earth filtration for a clear, stable wine before bottling at the estate. Aging takes place exclusively in thermoregulated stainless steel vats, preserving freshness and fruitiness while allowing low-temperature fermentation that best develops the wine’s aromas.

Tasting notes

Pale yellow color, aromas of white flowers, almonds and toasted bread. On the palate, a beautiful minerality brings out the typicity of our soils, with a honeyed finish.
